The appeal period is from the date the notice was deemed received. So, two working days after the issue date.

APCOA are so easy to beat as long as you only appeal as the Keeper and do not identify the driver.

Thank you, Sir. I will respond if anything further comes in.

Today was Day 26 after the Notice date so I am within the time.

Thanks

You appeal before the 28 days is up get it cancelled.

As the registered keeper, do not identify the driver:

Dear Sirs,

I have received your Parking Charge Notice (Ref: ______) for vehicle registration mark _______, in which you allege that the driver has incurred a parking charge. I am appealing as the registered keeper of the vehicle. There is no obligation for me to name the driver and I will not be doing so. I note from your correspondence that you are not seeking to hold me liable as the registered keeper, under Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 ("The Act").

Even if you were seeking to do so, as London Stansted Airport is not "relevant land" as defined by The Act you are unable to recover the charge from me, the keeper.

I am therefore unable to help you further with this matter, and look forward to your confirmation that the charge has been cancelled. If you choose to decline this appeal, you must issue a POPLA code.

Yours,

Put

Read https://www.ftla.uk/private-parking-tickets/read-this-first-private-parking-charges-forum-guide/ on not identifying the driver, and I suggest you modify your original post accordingly.

Title: Stansted Parking Notice
Post by: kamhuss on August 12, 2025, 03:21:10 pm

Hello,

I have recently received this parking notice. The notice has already passed the 14 day "discounted" period.

At the time I forgot to pay the charge at Stansted airport. I am happy to pay the £60 due but I am already past the discounted period after receiving this letter.

How would I be able to get it back to the £60 amount as I only received late last week?
